Vastu for Ups and Downs:

For commercial vastu, land which has slope towards north, east, north-east, and south-east, is considered auspicious. South-west should be the highest and North-East the lowest. North-west should be higher than North-east and lower than south-east for commercial vastu. Land sloping towards south-east are suitable sites for a hotel, restaurant, bakery, furnace and other projects dealing with fire elements like electrical appliances, generators and invertors. The land which has slopes towards the centre portion of the plot or has depressions in the middle is considered very inauspicious for any type of construction whether commercial or residential.

Gaja Prishtha : land elevated in south, west , south-west and north-west and sloping towards north-east is called Gaja Prishtha. Gaja Prishtha land is very auspicious and provides health, prosperity and good longevity.

Koorma Prishtha: land which is elevated in the central portion and has slopes in all four directions is called Koorma Prishtha land. In Hindu Mythology, Koorma or tortoise is a very auspicious symbol. A tortoise is an animal which can survive both on land and water, has a very long life and has a tough shield provided by nature. Koorma prishtha land is very benefic and provides happiness and prosperity.

Daithya prishtha: Land elevated in North-east, east and south-east and depressed in west direction is called daitya prishtha. As the name suggests this kind of land has inauspicious results like loss of wealth and unhappiness and is harmful for sons of the owner of the house.

Naga Prishtha: Land which is longer in East-west, higher in north and south and depressed in the centre is called naga prishtha bhoomi. Naga Prishtha vastu is the cause of heavy losses, mental tension, death and enmity. This is harmful for the wife and children of the owner.

It is easy to rectify any inauspicious elevations or depressions in the plot of land. In case of any elevations in North, North-East, and East, the soil can be transferred toward the West, South-west or south of the Plot. Any pits or depressions in the centre or south-west should be filled up immediately upon the purchase of land.
